Synthesis of MWNTs using Fe-Mo bimetallic catalyst by CVD method for field emission application

摘要

Multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWNTs) were synthesized by chemical vapor deposition technique using MgO supported bimetallic Fe-Mo catalyst. The role of Mo on the quality of as-synthesized CNTs and their application in field emission has been investigated. The field emission properties of the device fabricated from the CNTs synthesized with Fe-Mo catalyst was found to be better than the similar device prepared with CNTs synthesized with Fe catalyst alone.
